Renewal - The hope

This painting is the first one in the series on renewal. This painting has evolved while being in works probably reflecting an instinctive thinking every time the palette knife touched the canvas. Palette knife's use shows how hope cuts through the pain and testing times we face (indicated by the fire here). The painting depicts an increasing awareness of the world around us, and it’s an expression from the lens of an artist. From the glowing fire that symbolises hope-stronger that it is, the more likely it will cut through.
